Publisher's summary

Randy Wayne White has long been known for suspenseful plots, complex characters, and an extraordinary sense of place. His new series has them all - and then some.

Hannah Smith: a tall, strong, formidable Florida woman, the descendant of generations of strong Florida women. She makes her living as a fishing guide, but her friends, neighbors, and clients also know her as an uncommonly resourceful woman with a keen sense of justice - someone who can't be bullied - and they have taken to coming to her with their problems.

Her methods can be unorthodox, though, and those on the receiving end of them often wind up very unhappy - and sometimes very violent. And when a girl goes missing, and Hannah is asked to find her, that is exactly what happens....

Detail--Accuracy--Predatory bum


This tale continues Randy White's fishing and weird stories about Southwest Florida. Ancestors and rumors and school friends mix it all together.

A Boat Captain turned Sleuth

When I read the description of this book, it sounded interesting. A captain of a boat that take fisherman out on the Gulf of Mexico in southern Florida. She then helps to find a missing inheritance. Intriguing plot. I could not imagine how this could me done. Mr. White does it very well. He winds a tale with many different threads that come together towards the end. Everything seems to fit together. If you are listening to the book on Audible, the reader has a very pleasing voice that she twists to sound so all the characters have a different voice.

This is a great read.

GONE REVIEW

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I expected the same type of writing as in the Doc Ford series. Because of that, the book started out a little slow. However, it picked up and the story developed nicely. Overall, I'd recommend it.

Would you be willing to try another book from Randy Wayne White? Why or why not?

Always. I thoroughly enjoy his books.

Ok

This story spent way too much time on Hannahs character and insecurities. Not sure I care for this. Love doc ford books much more.

Great new protagonist

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes

What other book might you compare Gone to and why?

Any of his Doc Ford novels

What aspect of Renee Raudman’s performance would you have changed?

With the main voice being that of Hanna Smith, a SW Fla born and bread woman and fishing guide, she would have a more country / cracker accent.

Any additional comments?

Like the new protagonist and the ties to the past novels of Randy's. Hope he keeps it up.

Great descriptions of the Coastal Florida!

Very entertaining story, with written descriptions of wild Florida that dead on. Florida's backwater is a great stage and Mr. White does a very nice job painting the canvas.

Predictable and full of filler...

Also, too much weird sex stuff that doesn’t always fit into the story line... this book was a stretch for the author and not nearly as good as doc Ford books
